She closed her eyes, letting her tears flow freely. John did not bring her back to the Cliffside Villa. He instead brought her to another apartment.He carried her into the bathroom and prepared a hot bath for her. Then, he reached out to remove her clothes. She subconsciously closed her eyes and backed off, thinking that John was about to beat her again. This scene made him feel a twinge of pain. He frowned and was slightly annoyed. “Forget it. Take off your own clothes, and take a shower on your own. Everything you need is outside, and you can stay here tonight. Dolly won’t disturb you.”He stood up and added. “I’ll come back tonight. Remember to cook dinner.”After saying that, he went out, closed the door, and instructed two bodyguards to monitor the front of the apartment. After confirming that John was gone, Olivia took the pill bottle and name card out of her pocket. The name card was wet, so she carefully wiped it with her dry clothes. ‘Luckily it’s still legibl
John stopped eating and glanced at Olivia, only to see that she was eating soup with her head down and not looking at him. Suddenly, he slammed his spoon down on the table. “Olivia, do you have to do this? I’m having lunch with you. What else do you want?”Olivia drank all the soup in her bowl and put it down gently.“Johnny, you’re talking as though having a meal together as a married couple is a gift from you. Do you think that’s normal?”“Don’t you know that Dolly is injured and still in the hospital?”“I don’t care where Dorothy is. All I want to know is when she’ll be dead!”“Olivia!”John slammed the table and stood up. He stared at Olivia coldly.“Are you going to beat me up again?”Olivia sneered and continued. “Dorothy is a vicious woman. She killed my parents and Uncle Wallace, brainwashed my brother, and even snatched my husband. Should I thank her for doing all that?”“She saved my life!”“Saved your life? So are you repaying her by giving yourself to her?”Fee
John froze, and he looked into Olivia’s eyes coldly.“Yes. Wasn’t that the condition for bailing you out of prison?”It felt like John was saying, ‘Didn’t you know that, fool?’Olivia was heartbroken again. Her legs trembled slightly, but she still clenched her teeth and smiled. She dug her nails into her flesh, trying to hold back her tears.“Well, it’s what we agreed on. You can leave now.”Olivia turned around, and tears rolled down her cheeks.She thought she had learned to be strong and cold since that night. However, her broken body and heart were still foolishly and tragically in love with this heartless man.The door slammed, and she fell to the ground.She just wanted to have a good meal with this man. However, whenever she was with him, everything from her past flashed across her mind, and it was hard for her not to feel disgusted.It was worse when she thought about John in the same bed as Dorothy.Perhaps triggered by her mood swings, the pain in her chest assaile
John clapped his hands and suddenly stood up, giving Olivia a look of disgust.“Olivia, you don’t have to remind me all the time that you’re weighed down with another man’s baby.”Olivia held her belly and shrunk her neck back as she shouted, “This is your baby, not someone else’s!”“I don’t believe it!”“Johnny, Dorothy is pregnant. How can you be so sure the baby is yours and not someone else’s?”John avoided eye contact with Olivia as he loosened his tie. “Dolly isn’t a sl*t like you!”“Really? Did you know that the man whose hand you cut off was Dorothy’s lover?”John smashed his coat on the ground. “Olivia, can you stop it?!”“No! Johnny, you’ll regret it sooner or later! I don’t believe Dorothy can hide the truth for the rest of her life!” ‘You’ll find out the truth about the kidney too, Johnny.’She wanted to see how John would react when he learned the truth. Would he be angry or regret it?However, it seemed that she would not live to see that day. John went stra
Dorothy was stunned. She was so angry that she forgot all about minding her image.She shook off Wes’s grip and smoothed down her clothes. “If you say anything to John, I’ll make sure you pay for what you did.”Wes nodded. “Didn’t you say that I was only John’s dog? If so, why would Mrs. Freeman listen to me? You don’t have to worry about that, Ms. Ellis.”“You!”Wes said nothing more and walked out.He had delivered what John ordered him to convey. The rest was not important.However, what he saw today frightened him.Over the past two years, Dorothy had hidden her viciousness so well that even he did not notice it. Only today did he realize Dorothy was an unreasonable and demanding woman, unlike Olivia, who was way better in character.After Wes left, Dorothy was in despair.‘John said he wanted to divorce that b*tch. Why is he spending the night with her, then?‘No! We can’t let this go any further!’She made a call. “Get ready for tomorrow. I need you to do something for
“Let go! Let go of me!”After being pulled into the car, Olivia struggled, scratching the fat man with her nails.The man slapped Olivia and cursed. “B*tch, how dare you scratch me! Do you want to die?” The slap hurt. Olivia opened her mouth to speak. “You…”Before she could finish, the drug took effect, making her faint.The man holding Olivia’s mouth released her and threw her into the van. He looked up at the man who hit Olivia. “Boss, is this going to get you any money? I hope it isn’t a scam.”“Of course. This woman is John Freeman’s wife. How poor could John be? He might even be able to pay us a huge amount in ransom. This might be a better job than robbing the bank.”The thin man looked down at Olivia again. He licked his lips and gulped before saying, “Erm... Boss, well, we haven’t had any woman around for a long time. Why don’t we…”Although Olivia had lost plenty of weight, she was still fair, and the curves of her body made her look sexy. Her beauty was a rarity in
That was why he threatened Aaron into rejecting her. He wanted to find her at the correct spot at the right time to kidnap her.Also, he knew that she was afraid of dark rooms, but he still chose to throw her into one. He did it to extinguish the last bit of her love for him.This time, he did it also to remind her of what happened seventeen years ago. What a way to humiliate her!John’s thoughts were difficult to guess.Maybe it was just her being too stupid and unwilling to give up.The fat man left after telling her that. The room fell into darkness again like before. The only difference now was Olivia’s sobbing....Meanwhile, John was feeding Dorothy some fruits in the hospital. Suddenly, his phone rang, and he walked outside to answer it after putting down the plate.“Sir, I’m sorry we lost Mrs. Freeman. We’ve been looking for her, but we can’t find her.”John’s forehead puckered, and he clenched his fist. “Useless! All of you are useless!”After hanging up, he turned o
John returned to the apartment, violently pushed open the door, and roared, “Olivia!”He circled the room, but no one responded. Only then did he believe Olivia was not at home.‘Did she go back to the Cliffside Villa?’Without thinking twice, he sped to the Cliffside Villa.On the way there, Olivia’s face kept emerging in his mind, and his anxiousness grew.‘Is she not in love with me anymore and chose to run away?‘No! I won’t let her leave!‘This is a punishment for her. She must stay by my side for the rest of her life!’He subconsciously stepped on the accelerator and sped to Cliffside Villa.He soon arrived at his destination. After pulling over the car, he headed straight into the house to look for Olivia.“Olivia?“Liv?”He searched all over the house until his clothes were drenched in sweat, yet there was no sign of Olivia.‘Where did she go?’Just then, his phone rang.“Sir, we looked all over the area but couldn’t find Mrs. Freeman. The surveillance cameras ne
